WPF implementation to mimic Color / Layer controls                         By Balaji Ramamoorthy
The ribbon controls such as "Object Color Gallery” and “Layer List Combo Box” ribbon controls are useful for accepting color and layer input and can be placed in ribbon tabs. These controls are data-bound and any user input using these controls also ensures that the entity property gets modified. If you wish to accept color / layer input without such automatic property update to the entity, then you will need your own implementation of the controls.
Implementing such a control is a programming task involving WPF and with very little use of AutoCAD API. Iam sharing this project to provide a starting point for your own implementation which you can improvise based on your requirements and hopefully saves you some time.
Here is some relevant portions of the code from the sample project that you can download.
